Just wished I could get the Qobuz app experience and play from their directly and not be stuck with casting to the amp from my device at lower resolution, rather than having to use MusicLife. So in the end I settled on Qobuz.įrom Arcam perspective having all the options from different providers is welcome though. I kind of went away from Tidal, not that I didn’t think it sounded good but for me personally I was unhappy to pay a premium without getting or knowing if I was actually getting something consistently better. There will be times with higher sample and bit rates that MQA might surpass but…well there is still,that lossless debate, we all hear things differently and is this some new master MQA have somehow produced differently to what you are listing to from other sources? Now I am happy After a little heart attack and some thinking, I was able to figure out what had happend and how to solve it One of the two resets (or the update itself) must have killed the access token that the ST60 uses to connect to the WiFi. As Tidal Connect supports MQA, the playback hierarchy for now is MQA if. This is alongside Qobuz, the specialist but supremely high quality High Res Audio service Deezer, Napster and internet radio. This makes the inclusion of Tidal support something that is effectively ‘fully supported’ although Tidal Connect is yet to appear. Having said that I’m sure someone will rapidly point out that MQA isn’t lossless…. Verdict Arcams first effort in the field is laudable: the ST60 ticks multiple. Arcam has augmented that specification with MQA support. If the MQA version is CD level quality and what you have on your NAS is lossless rip of CDs and in theory from the same source/master you’ll hear the exact same thing.
